How easy is it to cheat on an AI interviewer, really?
Our CEO - @rvivek thinks he’s got it figured out.
Let's find out 🍿
The last edition of @hackerrank Orchestrate was a movie 🎬
A record 5,500+ builders from around the world, with over 350 of them building alongside us at our Bangalore office.
Fun fact: our oldest participant this time around was 50 years old and our youngest one was just 14! Talk about range.
A huge thanks to everyone who participated, and congratulations again to all the winners.
The next edition’s around the corner. Sign up here: hackerrank.com/hackerrank-or…

Okay, this is very exciting.
Sunny, who finished #1 globally in the September edition of @hackerrank Orchestrate, has officially joined us as an AI engineer.
He competed in 3 editions of HackerRank Orchestrate, finishing #42 in June, #15 in August, and #1 in September.
Super impressed by how he kept showing up and improving with each edition.
Most importantly, he demonstrated a critical skill developers need today: the ability to orchestrate AI agents to craft compelling solutions.
Registrations for the next edition of @hackerrank Orchestrate are now open! 🥁
Mark your calendars.
Exciting updates on prizes and what else you can win coming soon.
But let's just say, good things come to those who Orchestrate 👀

Hiring in the agentic era means looking beyond just the final output and understanding how someone got there.
Now that AI has made it easier to build, evaluating the approach matters more than ever.
Here’s what we shipped @hackerrank this quarter to help you do that.
If you walk into the @UseCorgi cafe and tell them you hate binary trees they bring out this bad boy
We’re heading to Amsterdam!
@hackerrank is a proud sponsor of The Recruitment Conference taking place on November 5th, and we can’t wait to connect with the TA and HR community 🙌
Come find our booth to meet the team and talk about what’s changing in technical hiring - and what’s working for companies that are getting it right.
Also catch Ben Stollard on stage for his keynote - Hire for the Agentic Era. He’ll share how leading companies are rethinking technical hiring and what talent leaders need to know to make the shift.

HackerRank Bench just added Gemini 4 Argon to the leaderboard of frontier models on real-world, long-horizon SWE tasks.
Argon scored 49.7% overall, just behind @AnthropicAI's Opus 5.5 and Fable 5.1. It did so at just a third of the cost of Opus 5.5! 👀
Here's where Argon stands out: it tops the leaderboard for greenfield implementation (63%), building working systems from scratch faster and more completely than every other model we tested, including Opus 5.5. It also leads frontend & interaction fidelity among non-GPT models (63%).
Its weak spot: Identity & provisioning integration, where it trails Claude Opus 5 and several others - implementing standards-based identity lifecycle and synchronization across tenant boundaries is still its toughest category.
Every task on our benchmark is original, unpublished, and scored by hand-written behavioral verifiers.

Is there one AI model that’s best at every kind of software engineering?
Our results say no. Different models outperform others on different kinds of work.
That’s what our new benchmark is built to measure, and today we’re proud to share it with everyone!
HackerRank-Bench is a long-horizon benchmark that tests 15 frontier models across complete software systems - from understanding a codebase to building, modifying, and verifying behavior.
It shows us which models lead on each type of engineering work, and where they still fall short.

Over these 4 editions, HackerRank Orchestrate has gone from strength to strength, growing both, in size and the quality of participation 🥳
Here's what we've learnt about how developers are building with AI: which tools they pick, how they use them, and what separates the strongest builders from the rest.

Everyone wants more compute. But as @cerebras puts it, if you’re actually building the compute, the bottleneck isn’t infrastructure, but people.
This is how they’re hiring AI-native engineers, and why they trust us to help them do it:
